I just received the MD2 microphone and the PL2T Pro-Line microphone boom I
ordered a few days ago. REALLY REALLY nice looking! And at about half
price, what a deal. I have it set up. I had to install 8 jumper blocks
onto the microphone header and a 5.6K resistor across pins 1-6 on the rear
of the 8 pin mike connector (supplied with the mike). My problem/question
is this. I had been using a regular Heil mike that had low gain for the K2
and a few years ago I read somewhere about changing a resistor to increase
the gain. The change helped. I don't know which resistor it was! I'm not
even sure which board it was on. I think a 10K resistor was involved
somehow. Does anyone know which resistor it might have been and do I have
to change it back to it's original value to have the new MD2 mike work
optimally?
